you can find good reasons to criticize taylor, this isn't one of them.

At this point it may not hurt, but to blame these two Ls on TT you are delusional.
oh, you don't need to put ALL the blame on him but he sure did not help the cause any and you're delusional if you can't see that, for sure.

Gotta wonder if Ragland could have helped the run defense as well.
not near as much as 99 would have.
rookie mistake on beanes part it's looking like.

I felt the jets game was worse, this being a close second.
I couldn't find anything good in either game.
-
I know after the last two games, this one being key in seeing how the team as well as the offense would bounce back after the jets debacle I've seen enough of taylor and hope the staff has as well.
really, it can not get any worse going forward starting peterman. it wont really get much better, especially with a defense that can not stop the run or cover but no reason why they shouldn't see what they have in peterman.
lets put it this way, they lose the next two which is a real possibility, their playoff hopes are all but gone anyway.
put the kid in and STOP with this taylor ever being a franchise QB nonsense, he never was nor will he ever be.

I was not a fan of the trade, still not but as much as he may of helped they needed more than him, especially on offense where today proved to me that taylor is not the man going forward. I believe they will bench him and start Peterman.
why else would they of pulled him?
beane made a very poor choice in not waiting until the off season to trade 99

....obviously for pain relief.............
there is a real good solution if this doesn't end well and it doesn't involve shutting the board down but rather avoiding this joint altogether.
they have clearly shown in the first half they're no bounce back team which leads me to believe they will struggle to over come the two touchdown deficit?
-
there for a minute I thought they shut the board down in fear of how nasty this joint will get when they get blown out by the saints?
this could get embarrassing for the home crowd.

hmm...they have no run game, not much of a pass game, an awful oline, not that good of a defense...
not really much to hang your hat on
I would like to be proven wrong, but my eyes haven't failed me yet.
well, not much hope there son. my eyes have failed me here in recent years, need to depend on my reading spectacles from time to time and since I have yet to hopefully see with these old eyes, 60 mins of football, I wont think fail but rather hope they don't fail these old eyes and pull out the victory?
you want to hang on to that negative outlook, hang your hat on it, that's your perogative.
enjoy the game and GO BILLS!!!

Just to get the time line right I said that after you already had said that the idea that defense wins games was a reach. I was pointing out to you that it's not a reach and is in fact very relevant.

anyone who feels that it falls more on the defense or special teams is really reaching.
my point was, ALL phases need to click.
it's a reach, especially in this game, which I was referring to in the above post when you're relying on one phase of the team to win . you went on to claim defense wins championships, end of story when clearly, even by the smallest of margin, it's not so in every game. this is how I see it. those putting their hopes on one side of the ball to win a championship (or regular season game) can and have come up short. so to me, having both phases, scoring points as well as not allowing points is just as key in winning a championship or regular season games.
in the case of the present bills team. they have neither the offense (30th pass/11th rush/16th points) or defense (26th pass/8th rush/6th points) to be able to depend on one or the other separately. they will need both offense to score, defense to make stops and special teams to make kicks and control the down and distance. all three phases need to click today.
saints
offense (3rd pass/7th rush/6th points) defense (12th pass/19th rush/10th points)
I hope some fans are not depending on the defense solely (or weather) to win this game, especially against a player like drew brees. because if you're depending on just the defense, it could end up disappointing. obviously no one is really depending on one phase of the game to win but some believe the only way to win a game or championship is through the defense.
ftr, defense has always been my favorite side of the ball but until or if this defense ever gets to number one (ravens 2000/2013 seahawks level) I know I have to look to the offense to do their part in trying to win football games and try to make the post season, which at this point is still in reach.

I dont think theres much of a chance for the bills, however
the jets might get their @$$es kicked
not much of a chance. oh well, you'll still be watching though, no?
lets hope they break the negative barrier you seem to always be behind, that would be good, yes?

More ammunition being him playing well or poorly. Winning or losing will probably add more fuel to that fire as well.
more weapons certainly should help his game. we shall see?

If this was true everyone would like Tyrod. Clearly many people want Tyrod to in no matter what the rest of the team does. Defense wins championships, end of story. Clearly offense helps but there is overwhelming evidence that teams that keep the other teams from scoring statistically win more championships. It's not really surprising and certainly not reaching.
out of the what, 50+ superbowls played, I would be curious to see if every sb winning team won solely because of their defense?
there has to be some kind of stat for that given there is a stat for everything, even how many times a player farts during a game, no?
as for your "Defense wins championships, end of story." it's really not the end of the story.
https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2016/feb/06/does-defense-really-win-championships
On this last point, casual fans might have suspected as much. Why? Because defense wins championships. Coaches of all levels and sports have said so for years. This isn’t even a locker room cliché. It’s hardened into one of the organizing principles of team sports.
Except that it ain’t necessarily so. What we found: when it comes to winning championships – or winning in general, for that matter – defense and offense carry uncannily similar weight. Among the 49 NFL Super Bowls, the better defensive team, measured by points allowed that season, has won 30 times. The better offensive team has won 25 times. It’s a slight edge to defense, but it’s a pretty close call, and not different from random chance. The Super Bowl champ has been a top-five defensive team during the regular season on 31 occasions. How many times was the Super Bowl champ ranked among the top five in offense? 27. Damn near even.
But we’re talking about only 49 games, so let’s broaden the sample size. There have been 462 NFL playoff games held over the last 49 seasons. The better defensive teams have won 58 percent of the time. The better offensive teams have won 62 percent of the time. Slight edge to the offense, but, again, pretty even. (Sometimes the winning team is better both offensively and defensively, which explains why the total exceeds 100 percent.)
Collectively, teams with a top-five defense have won 180 playoff games. Teams with a top-five offense have won 184 games. Accounting for almost 10,000 regular season games, the better defensive team has won 66.5 percent of the time compared to 67.4 percent of the time for the better offensive team. Again, a negligible difference.
according to their findings, having a stellar defense does not end the story. you really need both, imo.

One side of the Tyrod argument is going to have more ammunition after today’s game and that’s why this thread will be fun. The entire argument can start all over again.
can I ask what you foresee as more ammunition?
also, I don't put wins/losses solely on the back of the QB. pretty obvious all phases have to be clicking but it is pretty evident that the play of the QB and how he controls and leads the offense plays a pretty critical part when winning or losing games.

This thread is going to be really fun at around 4.
it will depend on the end result. it could continue on with the "is he a franchise guy" if he helps lead the team to victory or it could get ugly if he does not meet expectations and they lose.
one thing I will add. I may not be 100% confident in taylor but you wont see me post he sucks, cut him for peterman or any of the other ridiculous negative posts on his game. he is the starter and as the starter I support him just as I have the past QBs who unfortunately did not meet expectations but I supported them none the less because they were part of the team I support. until better comes along he is the guy under center and I can only hope he meets and even exceeds expectations because if he is, they're likely winning games.
so rather than knock him, I'm pulling for him to do well.
GO BILLS!!!

to me, this is a major test. the bounce back test.
I hope like hell they rise to the occasion.

19-141 career starts is 13.5%.
Guess what 5-37 career starts is?
lets see where taylor stands if he ever gets to 141 starts as a starting franchise QB? I could be more impressed but I'm thinking that unless somehow taylor becomes that guy in the next 8 games he may not have that chance, at least in a bills uni. also, I probably should of just left taylor out of my post altogether as I was basically responding to your reply to OldTimeAFLGuy below.
18 hours ago, transplantbillsfan said:over his career, he's not good leading his team to a W when behind in the 4th Quarter.
I wouldn't really call 12 4th qtr comebacks and 19 game winning drives as "not good". when/if taylor leads the team to a winning season/playoffs/conference championship games/superbowl trophy/superbowl mvp then maybe he can be mentioned in the same league as Aaron Rodgers?
